X-Sampa and CXS are ways of writing IPA in plain ASCII messages,
as used in mails or newsgroups. The few modifications CXS introduces are
marked in bold and in green color and are additionally mentioned in a
note in that section.

Vowels

Note 1: Instead of 1, the original X-Sampa,
i\ is in common use on Conlang.

Note 2: The schwa, @, does not seem to be defined to
be rounded or unrounded in IPA as the chart gives the letter in the
very center. We need a conlang that distinguishes these two to force
IPA to include both variants (you can write e_x and
2_x to indicate the two variants, though).

Note 2: The X-Sampa palatalisation ' is not in use in
CXS (collides with stress marker). Instead, only _j is used.
(X-Sampa allows both variants.) However, a CXS specific diacritic ; for
palatalisation is also in use.

CXS HTML

CXSHTML is a form of CXS for presentation in HTML pages when
for some reason real IPA is not suitable. It is more readable than
plain CXS by using markup.
This was proposed by Jeffrey Jones on
the Conlang Mailing List.

The mapping is simple: all modifiers starting with _ are
enclosed in <sup> in HTML, e.g., n_0 will become
n0.

Furthermore, the ) tiebar can be represented as underlining using
the <u> HTML tag, e.g., aI) will become aI.
